XR2Learn Open Call 2 – Top 3 Projects Advancing to the GROWTH Phase!

:rocket: XR2Learn Open Call 2 – Top 3 Projects Advancing to the GROWTH Phase!

We are excited to announce the three outstanding projects that have successfully advanced to the GROWTH phase of the XR2Learn Open Call #2:

:trophy: NEONATAL
:factory: X-DE-MAN
:anchor: Portal-XR

Following a highly competitive Pilot EXECUTION phase, these projects demonstrated strong technical performance, validated their solutions with real end users, and presented solid business plans with clear pathways to market uptake.

Each of them is leveraging Extended Reality (XR) to transform training in critical sectors:
:small_blue_diamond:NEONATAL is advancing immersive neonatal resuscitation training for healthcare professionals.
:small_blue_diamond:X-DE-MAN is enhancing safety and efficiency in electronics de-manufacturing through XR-based training.
:small_blue_diamond:Portal-XR is revolutionising port operations training with immersive, high-risk scenario simulations.

Now entering the final GROWTH phase, these teams will focus on scaling their solutions, strengthening market positioning, and maximising real-world impact.

:clap: Congratulations to the three teams for reaching this important milestone - and to all Open Call #2 participants for their innovation and dedication throughout the journey.

Stay tuned as we follow their progress toward market readiness and impact.
